Kim Soo Hyun's Private Photo Leak: The ongoing controversy surrounding Korean actor Kim Soo Hyun's previous relationship with the late Kim Sae Ron has led to the appearance of an explicit photo of him online. 

Kim Soo Hyun's leaked image appears to have been provided by the Garosero Research Institute, a YouTube channel where Kim Sae Ron's family members post updates, albeit the source is still unknown.

A photo purporting to show Kim Soo Hyun washing dishes at Kim Sae Ron's house has gone viral. The viral picture depicted a man with his back to the camera, wearing a black t-shirt with his butt exposed. A censored tag covered the lower part of his torso.

The picture recived tonns of response from social media users. Many emphasised that the actor would rather be embarrased infront of million than issue an apology. A user wrote, "Your private photos are spread all over the world and instead of saying "I'm sorry", you choose to be humiliated for millions of people. Why does Kim Soo Hyun prefer this? Why is it so hard to say sorry? Is it your ego that won't let you apologize or the fear of punishment?"

Another user commented, "The amount of people defending Kim Soo Hyun is crazy. This is why people don’t report when things like this happen. And the fact that most of them are women too. That’s honestly so embarrassing please get a grip I beg you. Have some decorum please and thank you."

Many also sided with Kim Soo Hyun after the photo went viral. "What is this photo proving? The dated, that has been already confirmed. She was old enough to live independently but not to be in an adult relationship. I'm not sure how this photo is respecting their daughter," read a comment.

According to Koreaboo, Gold Medalist, Kim Soo Hyun's agency, released a statement claiming that there is no legitimate cause to randomly release private images of the deceased and Mr. Kim Soo Hyun.

"We are sending our official statement regarding the report aired on the YouTube channel Garo Sero Research Institute (Gaseyeon) on March 14. The photos disclosed by Gaseyeon were taken on December 14, 2019. There is no justifiable reason for indiscriminately exposing private photos of Mr. Kim Soo Hyun and the deceased. We urge you to cease any actions that involve the dissemination of personal matters, " read the statement. According to the agency, they also requested a private meeting with Kim Sae-ron's mother.

Kim Soo Hyun faced outrage when Gaseyeon shared an unseen photo of the actors, claiming that he began dating the late Kim Sae-ron in 2015 when she was 15 and he was 27. The actor's agency admitted that the two had dated, but argued that they were both adults when their affair began.
